Thankful Thoughts


I am thankful for many things throughout the year. This time of year just makes me even more thankful than I usually am. God is sooooo good to me. My husband is truly the love of my life. AND beyond that, we really like each other! HA! I miss him when he goes away, I light up when he walks in the room and he is the first one I want to talk to when anything happens in my life. My children are more than I could ever imagine. Beautiful and hopeful, funny and healthy. What more could any woman ask for? This first year in Arkansas has certainly been interesting. It has not always been easy and we have learned to praise Him in every storm. Through our thankfulness we have learned God has (once again!) proved graceful and steadfast. There was a time I would have been wary that things were going "too good". Can you imagine? But that is just a lie. A rotten, stinkin' lie. "Everything in prayer and supplication". Anxiety is not part of the plan for my life. Even though it tends to creep in occasionally, I lean on the promise that we are never alone. And there is just one more thing I am thankful for. Gosh, will this list EVER stop!? God bless and good night!
